Need help with my ford 4500 backhoe

I bought a used tractor/backhoe I was using the backhoe when the motor/tractor stopped running. I assumed it ran out of fuel. I have had 2 people try and get it started with no luck. they changed the fuel filter and tried getting the air out of the system. it now will start and run for only a few moments then stops running again. for a while there was no fuel coming out through the overflow but now there is but the machine will not run. this machine is a 3 cylinder. any suggestions? Im frustrated.
 
Fill the tank with fuel. The pump is on the left side of the engine, and line routing is confusing, coming from, and going back to, the right side, while changing elevation. I switched mine from the Holley to the Zenith carb sold on this site, and it starts much easier and runs better than any time before.
 

Check the filter housing for a gasket that inadvertently got left in. having two of them there will block the flow. Now how would I know that?
